Requesting Samples
Requesting silk samples is far less expensive and much easier than most imagine. The first step is to be clear on pricing. Follow the steps below to price your designs or get answers to anything you need clarification on. You’ll hear back in 2 to 3 days with your best prices and any issues clarified.
Step 1. Select your Designs
The first thing to handle will be the styles you want us to produce. These can be from your inspiration, some of our ready-to-order ones, or a combination.
Custom Designs
We require a tech pack for custom silk designs unless they are easily understood, like a sarong, wrap skirt, etc., with easy-to-follow front and back images with notes on the changes you want us to incorporate.
Ready to order Designs
Our 2024 silk collection is an ensemble of edited and reworked designs taken from some of the world’s premium-quality clothing brands. All have been patterned and graded to international body sizes and are retail-ready.
Note. Most of our designs can be edited; if you want to make some edits, note them in the sample request form.
Mix & Match
Combine your own custom designs with some of our ready designs by emailing the codes from our collection and adding your custom designs’ tech packs, noting any desired changes or additional information.
Step 2. Fabrics, Colours and/or Prints
From feather-soft Silk Habotai to luxurious Silk Satin, we have the perfect Silk for every design. All come ready to cut in seven stock colours or, on request, in custom colours in 100-meter rolls.
If you want to add a print or two, we offer incredible true-to-life digital prints as well as hand silk screen printing in Bali. If you’re already working with prints in your swimwear collection, you’ll know the power prints can have sales-wise. We print by hand in Bali using silk screens or digitally print overseas, importing every week by air.

Speedy Timelines
We understand that fashion is fickle & timing is everything. That’s why we’ve streamlined our sampling & production process to deliver exquisite silk pieces in just 2-4 weeks. This swift turnaround ensures you can respond quickly to market trends and customer demands. But we don’t just stop at production – we want you to be completely confident in your designs before we begin. That’s why we offer a complimentary mock-up service, allowing you to visualize your collection and make necessary adjustments before production starts.
Sample Fitting & Size Guide
Working with International body sizes, we pattern and grade using state-of-the-art 2D Auto CAD digital software, which allows us to make incremental adjustments to our patterns in minutes. Please check our size guide before placing an order.
Top Tip.
Silk should always be fitted before dispatching samples. You may arrange this yourself, or we suggest contacting Castaway Model Agency, which offers a fitting service for 90 USD. Go to their website, select the model you think best represents your brand, and contact us to arrange. During the fitting, your sample merchant will be on hand to assist with the model and offer comments on how each article fits and feels on.
Any edits are then quickly organized before samples are dispatched.
We credit back 50% of the fitting fees upon receiving a bulk PO.
